raised in our own State, in the greatest abund
ance.
We are induced to these remarks from the
specimen of Georgia fruit we have seen in our
visits through the State, and more particularly
from a present we have received of specimens
of apples, the growth of Georgia.
Mrs. Dr. Ayer sends us a specimen of apples |
raised on Dr. Ayer’s plantation in Floyd coun
ty, which, in appearance, will well compare with
Northern fruit, and for flavor, they far surpass
it. Our friends can look at them, but hands off.
They are intended for the ladies of the establish
ment, who are the best judges, and who return
their thanks to the fair donor.
There is no reason why fruits of all kinds j
should not be generally cultivated in Geor- :
gia.— Sar. Georgian.
SOUTHERN DIRECT TRADE WITH
ENGLAND.
The New York Herald, of Sunday last, says:
“Several persons from the Southern States,
went out from this port, by the last steamer, for
the purpose of making some new commercial
arrangements, in England, by which a direct
trade may be opened between the South and
the trade of Southern capitalists are ;
largely interested in this fnovement, and their
agents will effect, doubtless, some measure of :
great importance. The cause of such enter
prise, on the part of the South, is to be traced |
to the belligerent attitude of the Northern States,
which are chasing a political abstraction, to end j
in a most deplorable overthrow of our com
merce. The people of the South are quite as
active in deeds, as those of the North are in
words; and this action, on their par*,is but the J
sign and symptom of other movements which
will assuredly ensue if the anti-slavery agitation :
is continued among us. We are sure of it.”
We hope this movement will be pressed for
ward, whether “the anti-slavery agitation is con
tinued” or not. Our people should never have
waited to be driven into such measures. With
our large exports, which in cotton alone amount
to upwards of $66,000,000 annually, (nearly
half the value of the entire exports of the
whole United States,) there is no reason why
we should not enjoy a large portion of the ini
port trade. Why should we pay a million of
dollars annually in exchange to the North for
exchanging our great staple for the European
goods which we consume? Upon our cotton
the commerce of the North is based. We fur
nish the capital and give all the profits to those
by whom the trade with Europe is conducted.
There is no necessity for this, and if the South
ern people have never made the discovery un
til they have been driven to it, they may thank
the Abolitionists for teaching them a wholesome
lesson. “It’s an ill wind that blows nobody
good.” A few years ago cotton factories were
unknown among us. No one dreamed that it
was possible for us to manufacture our own
cotton. Abolitionism at the North prompted
our people to go into a business, which, if suc
cessful, would render us independent of the
North in one respect at least. The result has
been a triumph, and the prospect is now, that
we shall soon rival the North in manufactures,
go far as cotton goods are concerned, if we do
not beat them from the field of competition a'-
together. At present we are not only manufac
turing largely for our own consumption, but
supplying the Northern markets with our coarse
fabrics and yarns, where they have the prefer
ence over Northern goods of the same descrip
tion. Not only so, but our manufacturing es
tablishments are flourishing, while those of the
North are languishing and closing their doors.
We see by late papers that nearly all the mills
in Maryland have stopped or are running short
time. While this is the case throughout the
manufacturing towns of the North, every spin
dle in the South is humming. We mention this
not in a spirit of exultation, but merely to show
our people that we have some advantages in our
favor, and that all that is required to enable us to
avail ourselves of them is a right application of
our capital, enterprise and industry. —Savannah

Caution—Dr. Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry.
The only genuine and original article was first intro
duced in the year 1838. It has been well tested, and ap
preciated lor ten years, in all the complaints for which it
has been recommended, viz :—Coughs, (-’olds, Influenza,
Bronchitis, Asthma and Consumption in its incipient
stages. No other medicine has proved more efficacious.
Various remedies, it is true, have been offered and
puffed into notice for the cure of diseases of the lungs;
and some have been found, no doubt, very usefni ; but of
all that have yet been discovered, it is admitted by phy
sicians, and all who have witnessed its effects, that none
has proved so successful as this. For Asthma, Short
ness of Breath, and similar affections, it may be pro
nounced a po-itive cure. It has cured Asthma in many
cases of ten and twenty years’ standing, after physicians
had declared the case beyond the reach of medicine.
From the Boston Post.
Dr. S. W. Fowle, 138 Washington street, has an arti
tiele entitled as above, which we believe is the best pre
paration hitherto discovered for the cure of colds and
other consumptive complaints Having tested this medi
cine, we can speak with confidence as to its salutary
effects in removing coughs and other complaints, inci

Dr, Willcox’s Sarsaparilla,
IS decidedly the best Medicinal Extract for the cure
of all diseases arising from an impure state of the
blood, and other fluids, that has ever been brought
before the public. The following are a few of the com
plaints in which the power of this extraordinary Com
pound has been displayed, viz;
Scrofula , Salt Rheum, Fever Sores , Piles, Scald
Head, Pimples on the Face and Body , Liver Com
plaint., Rheumatism, Consumption, Erysipelas ,
Cancers , Ulcers, and all Mercurial Diseases.
It is also a certain cure tor
Indigestion or Dyspepsia and General Debility ,
and is especially valuable for
Female Complaints.
The origin of all diseases, it will undoubtedly ba ad
mitted, arises from impurities of the blood and fluids
generally, or the action of morbid causes upon both flu
ids and solids—and whatever remedy will restore the
physical functions to a healthy state, and carry off the
corrupt matter which impregnates the blood and other
fluids, must necessarily be ol great interest to mankind.
Many of the medicines now in use are wanting in
their sanitary effects, in consequence of the absence of
some essential article, or an injudicious combination of
the ingredients used.
Against this medicine no such charge exists. While it
does all that other Extracts of Sarsaparilla are said to
perlbrm.it accomplishes what they leave undone.
Penetrating and Purifying the Blood
is only a part of its office ;
The Secretions of the Fluids Generally are Pro
moied by it,
and the internal muscular action relieved from that slug
gishness, which frequently lays the foundation of that
distressing complaint, generally known under the name of
Indigestion.
Its effect on the solids is such as to give to each part of
the muscular system that wholesome relaxation by
which the blood is enabled to extend its circulation free
ly, leaving the extremities as well supplied with life as
those parts least exposed to exterior changes.
The disfigured appearance of many of the human fam
ily by
Tumors , Abscesses, Swellings, Glandular and Cu
taneous affections ,
may be attracted to the inactivity of the organs where
these affections occur. As the fungus makes its appear
ance in decaying vegetable matter, so do Tumors pre
sent themselves on the human frame whenever the ani
mation of its parts is partially suspended. This medi
cine, then, by its singular and peculiar action on the
solids, is eminently calculated to afford relief when,
without it, the scalpel would hasten the patent to a pre
mature grave.
Tiffs Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla,
In Chronic Constipation,
Quietly insinuates itself"through, and purifies the^fluids,
relaxes the solids, and without draining the sufferer of
his energies, restores a healthy and permanent vital ac
tion.
In Rheumatic Complaints,
Its virtues are incomparable. The nervous system,
which, in these derangements, is deprived of its equili
brium, yields its negative action, assumes the positive,
and supplies the blood with that assistance in'its arterial
transit which, in endeavoring to make, before caused
pain and inflammation. THERE IS SCARCELY
A CHRONIC AILMENT which may notbe greatly
relieved, and in most cases, entirely cured, by a judicious
and well-timed use of this remedy.
Nervous Diseases
and
Female Com plaints ,
The most gratifying results have been effected. In
such eases, if taken as set forth in the directions, this
remedy will be found in realitv an IN VIGOR ATOR
AND, AS IT WERE, A LIFE-RESTORER.
To go through with the whole list of human ills is not
the design of this circular. The principle of the medi
cinal effect in cases for which this Sarsaparilla is a cer
tain cure, is all that is intended to be shown, and all that
is necessary to be known, to ensure its universal use.

GREAT COUGH REMEDY!
AYER’S
Cherry Pectoral.
FOR THE CURE OF
Coughs, Colds, Hoarseness, Bronchitis, Whoop
ing- Coughs, Croup, Asthma and Consumption.
This truly valuable remedy for all diseases of the
lungs and throat, has become the chief reliance of the
afflicted a3 it is the most certain cure known for the
above complaints. While it is a powerful remedial
agent in the most desperate and almost hopeless cases of
Consumption, it is also, in diminished doses, one of the
mildest and most agreeable family medicines for com
mon coughs and colds. Read below the opinion of
men who are known to the world, and the world respect
their opinions.
From Professor Hitchcock.
James C. Ayer—Sir: I have used your “Cherry
Pectoral” in my own case of deep seated Bronchitis,
and am satisfied from its chemical constitution that it is
an admirable compound for the relief of laryngial and
bronchial difficulties. If my opinion as to its superior
character can be of any service you are at liberty to use
it as you think proper.
EDWARD HITCHCOCK, L, L. D„
President of Amherst College.
From the “London Lancet.'”
“Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral” is one of the most val
uable preparations that has fallen under our notice. After
a careful examination, we do not hesitate to say we have
a large appreciation of its meiits and tho fullest confi
dence in its usefulness for coughs and lung complaints.”
Dr. Brewster, of Windham co., Conn., sends us tho
following testimony:
Dr. J. C. Ayer—Dear Sir: I enclose you a certificate
from Mrs. Catharine K. Cady, a highly respectable lady
of this village, wife of Mr. Seth Cady, Deputy Sheriff,
Windham co., Conn. The cure in her case was very
prompt, and has attracted general attention.
W. A. BREWSTER, M. D.
West Killingly, Ct., Sept. 28, 1848.
This may certify that I was afflicted with a very severe
cough in the winter of ’47-8, which threatened to ter
minate in consumption. I had tried many medicines in
vain, and was cured by the use of “Ayer’s Cherry
Pectoral.” CATHARINE K. CADY.
Direct Evidence.
Dr. J. C. Ayer, Lowell —Dear Sir: Feeling under obli
gations to you for the restoration of my health, I send you
a report of my case, which you are at liberty to publish
for the benefit of others. Last autumn I took a bad cold,
accompanied by a severe cough, and made use of many
medicines without obtaining relief. I was obliged to
give up business, frequently raised blood, and could get
no sleep at night. A friend gave me a bottle of your
Cherry Pectoral, the u-e of which I immediately
commenced according to directions. I have just pur
chased the fifth bottle, and am nearly recovered. I now
sleep well, my cough has ceased, and all by the use of
your valuable medicine. E. S. STONE, A. M.,
Principal Mt. Hope Seminary.
From Dr. Bryant, Druggist and Postmaster, Chicopee
Falls, Mass: „ ,
Dr. J. O. Ayer—Dear Sir: Enclosed please find re
mittance for all the Cherry Pectoral last sent me. I
can unhesitatingly say, that no medicine we sell gives
such satisfaction asyour’s does; nor have I ever seen a
medicine which cured so many cases of cough and lung
complaints. Our physicians are using it extensively in
their practice, and with the happiest effects.
Truly yours, D. M. BRYANT.
